The Sony Cyber-shot DSC T-99 is an ultra compact version of the Sony W350. It has many of the same features, but has a 3-inch touch screen and an internal lens where the W350 has a 2.7-inch screen and uses an external telescoping lens.
Good looks
The T99 is a very small and sexy camera, available in five colours: silver, purple, black, green and pink. It features very few manual controls, giving it a sleek, minimalist look, and has an attractive metal slide-down lens cover. It can be hard to get a grip on this camera, though, as its metal casing is quite slippery. The internal lens is also placed high up on the front left of the camera, making it frustratingly easy to capture fingers in your shots.
Controls
This 14-megapixel camera is operated mainly through its touch screen. The only physical controls are the power button, the shutter button, a playback button and a zoom rocker. Thankfully, the buttons don’t take away from the design with them being flush with the camera’s body. They can, however, be tricky to find without looking. The camera can also be switched on or off by raising or lowering the lens cover.
Touch screen
Everything else the camera does is controlled by its LCD touch screen. The display is quite responsive, but the interface does lag somewhat. Still, it’s easy to navigate your way around the T99’s functions via the touch screen. The touch screen is one of this camera’s main selling points, so if you’re not a fan of touch screens, or couldn’t be happy with a screen that’s not as responsive as the iPhone’s, you’d be better off with the W350.
The T99 produces pretty average images, which aren’t quite as good as those of the W350. But if you want a compact, good looking camera, this one may be for you.
